Calcium supplementation during pregnancy and maternal and offspring bone health: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Kati Tihtonen, Paivi Korhonen, Jaana Isojarvi, Riitta Ojala, Ulla Ashorn, Per Ashorn, Outi Tammela

Summary: The study found that supplementary calcium intake during pregnancy does not have a significant impact on maternal bone density after delivery or offspring bone density, even with low dietary calcium intake. Some data suggest potential long-term harm of the intervention on maternal bone density and growth of female offspring.

Associations between maternal vitamin D status and porcine litter characteristics throughout gestation

Claire Stenhouse, Emma Hurst, Richard J. Mellanby, Cheryl J. Ashworth

Summary: Recent evidence suggests that vitamin D plays a crucial role in pregnancy, fetal growth, and development in various mammalian species. However, little is known about the changes in maternal vitamin D levels during pregnancy in pigs and its relationship with litter characteristics. This study examined the levels of 25(OH)D in maternal plasma at different gestational days and found a significant increase between days 18 and 30. The study also investigated the association between maternal vitamin D levels and various litter characteristics, such as gilt weight, ovulation rate, mean litter weight, number of live fetuses, prenatal survival rate, and sex ratio of the litter. The results showed that maternal 25(OH)D levels were positively associated with prenatal survival rate on day 60 and inversely associated with gilt weight on day 90. Maternal plasma 25(OH)D levels were also inversely associated with the percentage of male fetuses in the litter on day 90. This study provides valuable insights into the temporal changes in maternal vitamin D levels during pregnancy and its impact on economically important litter characteristics. Understanding the role of vitamin D in fetal growth during key developmental stages is vital for improving reproductive success in livestock species.

The Role of Maternal Vitamin D Deficiency in Offspring Obesity: A Narrative Review

Yifan Wu, Yuan Zeng, Qian Zhang, Xinhua Xiao

Summary: Currently, vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy is widespread and has detrimental effects on both mothers and infants, leading to long-term unfavorable pregnancy outcomes based on the DOHaD theory. Maternal vitamin D deficiency affects offspring obesity through lipid metabolism disorders and other mechanisms such as adipogenesis disorder, abnormal adipocytokine secretion, systemic inflammation, oxidative reactions, insulin resistance, and abnormal gut microbiota. Addressing maternal vitamin D deficiency is crucial in relieving the global burden of obesity.

Maternal Vitamin D Levels during Pregnancy and Offspring Psychiatric Outcomes: A Systematic Review

Subina Upadhyaya, Tiia Stahlberg, Sanju Silwal, Bianca Arrhenius, Andre Sourander

Summary: Prenatal exposure to vitamin D may have an impact on human brain development and function. Previous epidemiological studies on the association between maternal vitamin D levels and offspring neuropsychiatric outcomes have been inconclusive. This systematic review found limited evidence for a link between prenatal vitamin D deficiency and autism spectrum disorder, and positive associations with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and schizophrenia when considering studies with larger sample sizes and stricter definitions of deficiency. Larger studies with longer follow-up periods and evaluation of prenatal vitamin D at multiple time points are needed for further investigation.

Summary: This study used data from 2,325 population-based studies to analyze the height and BMI of children and adolescents aged 5-19 years in urban and rural areas from 1990 to 2020. The results showed that the height advantage of urban residents over rural residents has decreased in most countries, while it has amplified in sub-Saharan Africa. The BMI difference between urban and rural areas is small in most countries, with faster BMI growth in urban areas observed in some regions.

Adiposity is associated with widespread transcriptional changes and downregulation of longevity pathways in aged skeletal muscle

Mark Burton, Elie S. Antoun, Emma Garratt, Leo Westbury, Alica M. Baczynska, Elaine C. Dennison, Nicholas Harvey, Cyrus P. Cooper, Harnish M. Patel, Keith A. Godfrey, Karen Lillycrop

Summary: This study examined the impact of obesity on skeletal muscle tissue in older adults and identified molecular mechanisms associated with this impact. The results showed significant changes in gene expression in muscle tissue of obese individuals, with upregulation of genes involved in immune response and inflammation pathways and downregulation of genes involved in longevity and AMP-activated protein kinase pathways. These changes were also associated with alterations in DNA methylation and muscle fiber type.
